Google’s AI-Powered Search Has A Major Scam Problem That You Should Know: All Details
Google recently introduced its AI-powered search for all users who can activate the feature but these people are now facing some dangerous issues.

Google has already faced questions about the credibility of its AI model Gemini and now the company is hit with further issues, this time related to the AI-powered Search. Most people have got access to the AI avatar of Search recently, and some of the results you see for a subject is reportedly including links to dangerous sites, other platforms that harbour scams.

The biggest concern about the new-look Search is that people can mistakenly end up installing malware by clicking on any of these suspicious sites which can steal their data and harm in other ways.

The details about the new issue for Google has come via this report, which quotes one Lily Ray, who is a SEO consultant. The report mentions that some of the links available through the AI-powered search results are similar to the sites that redirect a user and take them to a malicious website.

In some cases, you might be redirected to a site that resembles YouTube but is basically tempting you into clicking something to infect the device one way or the other. You might also be bombarded with spam alerts and messages once you accept or click on any of the links, which could be another channel for the virus or malware to enter your system. The report mentions that Google has been informed about the issue plaguing the AI-based search, and feels that people could easily fall into the trap as the website and results look genuine.

Google clearly has a lot of work to do with its AI systems, and ensure the clean up is done regularly, or else, scams like these can severely dent the image of its AI tools and make search less popular among billions across the globe.

What's your reaction?
